Mrs Elaine Moore

Preliminary Matters

Service
1. The Panel was satisfied that the Registrant had been properly served with notice of today’s hearing by email dated 10 November 2025, in accordance with the Health and Care Professions (Conduct and Competence Committee) (Procedure) Rules 2003, as amended. Service of notice was confirmed by email of the same date.

Proceeding in absence
2. The Panel had regard to the HCPTS Practice Note on “Conducting Hearings in the Absence of the Registrant” and accepted the advice of the Legal Assessor. The Panel noted that the Registrant had not engaged with the HCPC since the last review on 20 November 2024. She had not applied for an adjournment. The Panel inferred that she had voluntarily absented herself and waived her right to attend. Today’s hearing is a mandatory review which must take place before the expiry of the Suspension Order on 19 December 2025. The Panel concluded that no useful purpose would be served by an adjournment and that it was in the public interest and not unfair to the Registrant to proceed with the hearing in her absence.

Hearing in private
3. Ms Hewett made an application for the entire hearing to be conducted in private on the grounds that the case concerned the Registrant’s health.
4. The Panel had regard to the HCPTS Practice Note on “Conducting Hearings in Private” and accepted the advice of the Legal Assessor. The Panel granted the application for the entire hearing to be conducted in private on the grounds advanced by Ms Hewett.

Order:
The Registrar is directed to remove name of Mrs Elaine Moore from the register upon the expiry of the current Suspension Order.

This Order is due to come into effect on 19 December 2025.
